ROK - Re signs with swans for 4 years. (Confirmed)

[hammo]

From the HS article:

O'Keefe's management, indeed, has told Victorian suitors that, if he moved, he would like to play with a club that a prospect of success in the near future, and that money was a secondary consideration.

[NMWBloods]

O'Keefe waited until the end of the season. The greatest forward since John Coleman hawked himself around during the run up to the finals. Don King, Kid Terrific's agent deliberately destablised the club in the process.

Oh, that's why we didn't win the flag...

Apparently both parties, O'Keefe and Sydney have entered an agreed negotiating period.

Comments from the Swans don't suggest that they have agreed for him to talk to other clubs.

Dont worry, we wont be dealing with Sheeds this time.

With news that we're maybe *possibly* *perhaps* *definitely* interested in Stanton and Lovett. I may have spoken too soon...maybe Sheeds IS still managing the list I fear a Bomford/Rhino stitch up coming on

O'Keefe is not in breach of his contract. And Davis has been shown the door.

swans didnt know about okeefe, and he is seemingly forcing us into a trade, or we get nothing as he can walk out

and he didnt go for the swans as a kid in fact i saw him in a blue shirt once, think he goes for carlton

[swantastic]

Yes but they wouldn't be acting without instructions from their client. O'Keefe is treating the club quite shabbily in all this. I would have thought a phone call at least to the coach was warranted to let him know what's going on.

May be hammo but if you have some one in your ear saying spondoolies,spondoolies,spondoolies we can get more else where then some times it sinks in and puts doubt into your mind.

The more money ROK can get else where the more his managment team gets,ummmm.

You'd hope that don't have a bad lisp. Your ear could get rather wet.

I think its as Scott put it (but I like the Travis Cloke version)

"smoke in the windows and daggers....umm mirror or something...."

Roosy knows exactly whats going on.

[Jewels]

I'm praying this is all just RyanO doing what Jolly did last (?) year to get the club to give him the contract he wants and that he'll announce at the B & F that he has re-signed for four years.

Please, please footy Gods, let it be so........

I'm hearing we are offering hall to western bulldogs for peter street and a second round pick.

i can only assume that if this is true the second round would be passed on for something else because that would be the greatest win for the bulldogs ever - a ruckman who is pathetic around the ground for our best forward.

We are not, AND I REPEAT NOT going to trade this year for a ruckman.

So don't pay one sherik of attention to any talk of us looking at Street or White.

However we may target Kosi to play KP Defender and as insurance for ruck if Currie is not ready or we lose Jolly at any point next year.

Hawks join the chase.

Hawks join queue in bid to lure O'Keefe away from Sydney - realfooty.com.au

Now were talking they have a first round draft pick and possible young KP forward combo that will be very tempting if they are willing to bite.

Bring on 16 and Beau Dowler..................................

We can keep 12 and 16 for young kids and off load our second rounder to SnDON for Lovett.

Could even use 16 to tempt St Kilda for Kosi (but that would be too high IMHO).

Out: ROK and second rounder

In: Bea Dowler, Kosi and a number 12 pick

I think he (Cloke) said "smoke and shadows.....through the window"

[Plugger46]

Watched and played against Dowler all he way through juniors. Didn't rate him that highly then and don't rate him now.

[woo]

I spoke one of the players today, hes off to collingwood.

they have offered him big moula.

not signed yet but its as good as done....

[NMWBloods]

So now it's a certainty he's going to Essendon, Carlton and Collingwood. Probably a good way to really up his pay. Lucky he's fit!

I thought ROK said it wasnt a money factor?

Any way woo why would a player tell you the real story any way,and he probably doesn't even know 100% him self.
